The Irvington Guild of Artists is updating our data base and we need your help. We now have a student intern (yay!) and she may be calling you soon to confirm the info we have and to update info. It will take less than 2 minutes. Or, we may send you a brochure and ask for info updates that you can then snail-mail back. Or, you can just email us at info@irvingtonart.org or media@irvingtonart.org. We'd love to have your email, phone, Facebook, Twitter info and would really love to have you renew your membership. (No worries, your info is safe with us.) Your membership directly supports the art events that the Irvington Guild of Artists sponsor. You know the ones: the Art Walk in June, Creative Art Camp, Walk in the Park, the Collector's Show and more! So, looking forward to connecting with you soon!

About the organizations:

INvision: Alliance of Photographic Artists has been meeting together to promote and advance the art of photography since the mid 1990’s. INvision provides a platform for photographic discourse in order to encourage the artistic growth of its members and to enrich the lives of interested people through the experience of photography. Members are from many walks of life and find that art photography is the creative outlet that feeds their soul. Patrons will find a diverse group of image-making techniques and imagery from the members of INvision as each photographer shares their unique vision about this world in which we live.

It is the MISSION of the Irvington Guild of Artists to promote Irvington as a center for advancement of the arts by educating, sponsoring art exhibitions, and assisting the development of artists in their media.
